Study Smart uses specially designed binaural brainwave entrainment programs that synchronize the frequency of your brainwaves with a those associated with focus, concentration, analytical thought, and memory retention.

*** The Science Behind Study Smart ***

Study Smart synchronizes your brainwaves to a specific frequency by sending two different audible frequencies to each ear, which after being processed are perceived as a low frequency tone matching human brainwaves. Studies have shown various states of mind to be associated with these low frequencies, ranging from a focused, concentration and memory boosting state to deep relaxing sleep.

Study Smart recreates these frequencies, allowing your mind you to relax and synchronize with the desired state. It achieves this using a unique process called Progressive Brainwave Entrainment.

*** Progressive Brainwave Entrainment ***

- Composite Binaural Frequencies that stimulate multiple brainwave frequencies are used to create combination experiences, such as focus and concentration.

- Progressive Brainwave Programs - Each program goes through a progression of brainwaves, each for a specific period of time sufficient to synchronize your brainwaves with the binaural tones. This ensures a more effective brainwave entrainment experience.

*** Features ***

- 5 scientifically engineered programs, each designed to be used at a different time of the day.

- Advanced binaural sequences to take your mind through a series of binaural frequencies to achieve your desired state of mind.

- Adjustable Brainwave signal intensity: Adjust the brainwave signals independent of the background ambient nature sounds to your comfort level. Your preference will be saved for the next time you use the app.

- Multiple program durations (20 min, 30 min, 40 min, 50 min, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours)

- Soothing background sounds including: Ocean Waves, Storm, Rain, Waterfall, Stream and Forest sounds. Your brain will process the binaural frequencies played over these background sounds.

- Tested on both iPhone and iPod Touch.

*** Binaural Stress Release Programs ***

- Morning: A sequence of brainwave frequencies designed to gently bring you from a sleepy state to a focused, alert state designed to focus, concentration, boost memory formation and recall.

- Mid-day: A memory boosting sequence designed to combat morning mid-morning fatigue and to maintain concentration.

- Afternoon: A sequence that combines memory boosting focus, and concentration, perfect for post-lunch fatigue.

- Evening: Begins with a deeply relaxing low theta wave sequence to help you unwind and decompress, before bring you back to a relaxed yet focused state.

- Late Evening: Helps you fall asleep with a low-delta wave sequence follow the high beta frequency study phase. This is a great way to unplug after reading or staring at a computer screen for long periods of time. Getting a good nights rest is essential to memory formation and recall and mental performance the next day.


If you have any prior medical conditions such as seizures consult your physician before using any binaural brainwave entrainment application. Never use binaural brainwave entrainment when operating machinery or driving.

Not Worth It

I liked this idea at first because I tend to have a short attention span and get distracted easily, however I do not think that this app truly helps you focus in any way. I tried it a few times and I just got annoyed with the buzzing "brainwave" noise and I just couldnt bother to use it anymore. So to conclude I would rather just listen to music and I definitely do not recommend this app to anyone.

App utile

Allinizio ero molto perplesso sul fatto che potesse o no funzionare,poi lho provata diversi giorni in diversi momenti;infine ho provato a studiare unora con e unora senza e la differenza d concentrazione è stata notevole! Leggere bene le istruzioni xkè spiegano bene come usare al meglio questa app. Infine ho anche provato la differenza usandola con o senza cuffie ed anche lì ho notato che è proprio vero che le cuffie vanno usate per forza, se no nn serve a niente. Unica critica sta nel fatto che questa app nn si possa tenere in background come liPod, sarebbe stato utile poterlo fare poichè se arriva un mex, una chiamata o t serve usare un vocabolario online si esce dallapp e si deve riprendere tutto da capo... Comunque io la consiglio assolutamente x tutti quelli che,come me,hanno difficoltà a concentrarsi sui libri. -Jappo-

Good but...

drains a lot the battery even if paused, please solve in an update

Great app

Great sounds and user interface. Easy to use and effective if you want to block out some background noise. I also find that it does help to increase focus and concentration.

So far so good!

With the exception of a distinquishable separation when the nature sound tracks repeat this app is great! You need headphones for it to work correctly but you could use it without just for the nature sounds. It helped my ADHD brain focus enough to start my paper.

Good, but with a few adjustments

Its an interesting app that seems to do what it says. The problem I would like for the developers to fix would be to actually say which frequency each setting uses. I dont think that characterizing each set of frequencies according to the time of day is the most efficient manner. Personally, Id like to see what frequencies each preset will use, so I can tailor it to my own needs of studying, preparing for work, etc.

Loving it!

I must admit that I had my doubts about the abilities of this app when I first read the promotional blurb accompaning it. However, I decided to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised. I find that my focus and concentration is indeed increased, while the stress of the day is sufficiently dissipated. This app has definitely become one of my favorites. Thank you Banzai Labs!
